Trump responded:
"I guess he disagrees with what I’m saying, but a lot of people agree with what I’m saying," he said.
My view: This is playing right into Trump's hands and will only increase his support with white male uneducated voters.
Hitler comparisons should be not be used as political fodder. Hitler exterminated 6 million Jews. Ivanka Trump is married to a conservative Jewish man and converted. Eric Trump is married to a Jewish woman.
Trump really has no policy position because he changes his mind a lot. The only thng we know for sure he will do is build a wall. To accuse him of intending to build concentration camps in the U.S. and kill the occupants, as Hitler did in his home country of Germany, is hyperbolic.
There are many, many reasons to oppose a Trump candidacy. Oppose him because he's unqualified. Not only is he inexperienced, he's lacks even a fundamental understanding of how our legal system, Congress, and the judiciary operate. Oppose him because his views on foreign policy and Muslims and Hispanics are unacceptable. Oppose him because he is the wrong person to choose the replacement of Supreme Court nominees and federal judges. Oppose him because you believe he only cares about Donald, not the country.
The list goes on and on. It's plenty long enough to cause thinking Americans to vote for someone else. It's not necessary to add the hyperbole that he is like Adolf Hitler, and it just furthers his meme that the media picks on him and doesn't give him a fair shake.
We don't need Republican talking points here -- please don't quote the words of people like Bloomberg, Mitt Romney, Lindsay Graham or John McCain "for the truth of the matter asserted." They are politicians grasping at straws in their too-late attempt to reverse what at this point is irreversible.
Donald Trump will almost certainly be the nominee. Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio would be worse for the nation. Let's turn to why Hillary is better than Trump. You can talk about what the Republicans say about Trump, just don't cite them as being right or as support for your personal position that Trump is what they claim.
